Monthly reward for best homebrew authors
We at GBAtemp are proud to announce the creation of a Monthly Homebrew Bounty, a bounty (fund-raising using donations from organizations and people) that will reward, each month, the author of the best homebrew. For now, this only goes for Nintendo DS homebrew but we might extend it to other platforms later.
In order to show our support for the homebrew scene, GBAtemp will be sending a $200 contribution to the bounty, every month! You can contribute too, by using our ChipIn page! Your contribution, no matter how much it is, will be much appreciated and your name will appear on our front page when the winner is announced, at the end of the month. Let's now take a look at the rules:
- Every month, one homebrew application or game is elected "Homebrew of the month", and its author receives the entire amount of money collected using the bounty.
- Votings are done at the end of each month. Donators will be allowed to vote if their donation is $10 or above. Please note that GBAtemp.net will be donating $200 every month, but will only be entitled to 10 votes. The 10 voters from GBAtemp may vary every month, and will be selected among our staff & long-time trusted members.
- There are no particular requirements for homebrew to be eligible to the competition, except for one point: the homebrew game or application must either be completely new, or have received a significant update specifically for this competition.
- The same homebrew may win the competition several months successively, under the condition mentioned above: it must receive a significant update from one month to another.
- To submit your entry, all you need to do is post a topic in our special dedicated Homebrew Bounty Forum. Your topic should be as helpful & descriptive as possible: presentation may be a key point for judges. If you need a hosting space for your homebrew projects, feel free to use our Download Center.
- If you're a website owner and wish to join this project (and contribute on a regular basis) please send me a message! This bounty is held for the sake of the NDS scene and although we did start it, we would like this to be a general project, in everyone's best interest!
